Matt Johnson - We Can't Stop What's Coming lyrics

So here you live Trapped inside the days Your pen moving across the page Back to where? It has begun Uncoiled, unspun What you were, what you will become The days, setting with the sun Wake up it's time to go The taste of tears still in your throat Silence from your songs Reminds us, when you are gone We can't hate the river for flowing Can't blame the wild wind blowing Can't slow time from running We can't stop what's coming The Bonfire is burning The birds returning An owl by night A mourning crow Indide a Shadow that grows A darkness in the darkness A stranger on the shore Outside of your window Knocking on your door When there is rain that pours 'Til there is pain, no more Wake up it's time to go The taste of tears still in your throat Silence from your songs Reminds us, when you are gone We can't hate the river for flowing Can't blame the wild wind blowing Can't slow time from running We can't stop what's coming
